Neena Gupta - Vivian Richards
The legendary right-handed batsman had come to India for a very short stint. The small-time actress then and the West Indian met for a briefer time.

As the nation kept guessing who could the father be, Pritish Nandy published her daughter's birth certificate - Vivian Richard's name was mentioned as the father of Masaba. It was much later that the world woke up to the fact that the two were seeing each other for a while. Till date Viv Richards supposedly visits the mother-daughter, once every year.

Sharmila Tagore-Mansoor Khan Pataudi
When sexy Sharmila Tagore and dashing Tiger Pataudi first met in 1965, at a shoot in Delhi, little did they know what was in store for them. It took four years for a persistent, crazy-in-love, Pataudi to convince the then-bombshell, to marry him. After sending roses and even a refrigerator, if rumour is to be believed, the Bengal beauty relented. Now, it was the turn to convince their families who vehemently opposed this liaison. But love won, and on December 27, 1969, they tied the knot. For a long time, sceptics adopted a wait-and-watch stance, since most such relationships hadn't even made it to the altar. But today, 42 years later, having weathered all kinds of storms, they are an example for Gen Next.
